Almost 1,300 people joined us for Startup Asia Jakarta in November for two full days of startup pitches, keynote talks and panel discussions.

Now, we’re gearing up to bring you yet another round of our signature conference series with Startup Asia Singapore 2014, happening May 7-8 right in the heart of Biopolis, Singapore’s deep tech research center.

We are very privileged to have as our Guest of Honour, Singapore Minister of State Teo Ser Luck. MOS Teo has been extremely involved in championing entrepreneurship in Singapore and is the perfect person to help us kick off Day One of the conference.

A few other highly respected names have also agreed to speak and they include Fritz Demopoulos (co-founder of China’s Qunar.com that recently went IPO on NASDAQ), and Min-Liang Tan (founder and CEO of Razer). You can look forward to hearing about their experiences and picking their brains about the future. We will be having more announcements about our lineup of speakers soon.

We at Tech in Asia love showing you what Asia creates each day, and Startup Asia is our chance to present you newly launched or product-ready tech startups born in this region. For us, building these bridges of knowledge between Asia and the whole world is an important goal we feel honored to be a part of. So, continue to let us find the best and most promising startups to invest in, and startups, let us be a part of your journey to build and scale.
